This listing is for the owner's suite.

Please note that currently we have experienced flood damage and that the game room is no longer available and the entry, entryway and hallway have been impacted. I currently do not have the variety of games and other outdoor activities / supplies due to flooding. The home is still available and the units themselves were not impacted. However, if you choose to rent, please understand that there will be some areas that are not finished, construction may be present (but I will communicate that with you), and that the handrail for the first set of steps is missing due to the lack of drywall at this time.


2 bedroom and 2 bath home with Ocean Vistas. Fabulous location within simple walking distance to the beach, Publix, stores, splash pad, the park and eateries. Some of our favorites are the BBQ home, OKI Coffee Shop, OKI Scoop Shop and 49th Street Bar and Grille. We are located one block from a public beach access. We have everything you could need in one spot! You are also within walking distance of the Oak Island summer activities such as bands, movies in the park, the new skate park and splash pad.

Another benefit is complimentary parking! Starting April 1st, the town will be charging $20 per day for beach parking. This home gives you beach access without any additional costs since you are just steps away from the ocean.


If you want the best vistas, rent this section of the home! You can also contact me for a discounted rate for both levels, giving you 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, room to sleep 24 people, 2 entirely outfitted kitchens, 2 living areas, and 2 private decks.

We decided to give a nod to one of our favorite college teams, the Appalachian State University Mountaineers, and bring our mountain appreciate a little closer to the ocean. The name of our home is "NEER the SeA", with the "A" in traditional AppState fashion. Both of my parents are from Boone, and both attended AppState. My Mother was a giant AppState fan and a lover of Oak Island, so my son and I decided that the name of the home was the ideal tribute to her and her legacy.

I appreciate to watch the dolphins swim by while I relax on the deck. There is a roomy yard for play and space for parking with 3 cars limit, with room for only one upsized car.

Strategies to get the very best rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Oak Island. Reserve your rental in the Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• First, have your group agree to a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Ocean Views, Brand NEW, < 2-minute walk to Beach, Great Location! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property manager before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what is optimal for your vacation group.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• During check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many problems.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-out, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific stay? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
